Awful New Details About The Sister Of The Charleston Church Shooter Who Was Arrested For Threatening Students Doing A Gun Walkout

Morgan Roof is the sister of Dylann Roof, who killed nine people in 2015.

The sister of the man who is on death row for killing nine people at a South Carolina church has been arrested for bringing a knife to school and threatening students participating in a walkout against gun control.

Morgan Roof is the 18-year-old sister of Dylann Roof, 23, who opened fire on a church in Charleston in 2015 and murdered nine black parishioners in an effort to start a race war.

"The posting was not a threat, but was extremely inappropriate," the statement from the high school read. "That student was dealt with in a swift and severe manner as the posting caused quite a disruption."

Morgan Roof has been charged with simple possession of marijuana and two counts of carrying weapons on school grounds. She was released on a $5,000 bond but was not allowed to return to her high school.
